Anil Kumble surpassed Glenn McGrath to become the world's third highest wicket-taker in Tests as India bowled England out for 345 on the fourth day of the third and final Test at the Oval on Sunday.
Kumble, who scored his maiden Test century on Friday in India's first innings total of 664, dismissed Monty Panesar to end England's innings and improve his Test tally to 564.
The 36-year-old leg-spinner, India's leading wicket-taker, lies at third place after Australian counterpart Shane Warne (708) and Sri Lanka's Muttiah Muralitharan (700) in the all-time bowlers' list.
Aussie Glenn McGrath, who quit international cricket after the World Cup, claimed 563 in Tests.
Kumble, playing in his 117th Test, also improved his international scalps to 900 - including 337 in ODIs - with his 563rd scalp on Saturday.
The Karnataka bowler became the first India and fifth overall to accomplish the rare feat.
Muralitharan (1157), Warne (1001), McGrath (949) and Pakistan's Wasim Akram (916) are the other four bowlers in the exclusive club.
England conceded a lead of 319 runs but India chose not to enforce the follow-on.
